A600 AGA Possible?
« on: July 22, 2013, 11:26:14 AM »
Hi.

I'm not yet an owner of an Amiga system, but I'm looking to get into it. Of course I want the best system that'll play all the games and run all the programs... but my goodness that Amiga 600 is so small and cute!

So I'm deciding between an A1200 or A600. I'm leaning towards the A1200 because of its AGA and expansion capabilities, but I much prefer the form factor of the A600.

Is there any way to get any AGA out of the A600 and to take it up to the A1200's level of graphical capability? Or should I just go with the A1200?

Someone did it, accelerator and all. See this thread on Amibay:

Now THAT'S what I'm talking about! Someone provide instructions and I'll do it! :P

But realistically, yea I'll most likely just go with the A1200. However...

Can the FPGAArcade support all the original Amiga floppy drives, PCMCIA, external hardware and peripherals? (Not accelerators though. Pretty sure that's built in) I might find a broken A600 and slap one of those in the case or somethin' and use the original ports. I'd want it as authentic and backwards compatible with original junk as possible.


Thanks for your input everyone!
